Hi everyone finally I got the portal confirmation email on July 18th and I replied them back yesterday. I have a question regarding photo specifications, do we need to get clicked from photo studio which would be digitally and scanned or can we click by ourselves?

Did you get second email " login and password for portal".

Hi, I have no idea. I called IRCC on Wednesday and my file was in Sydney. Got DM on Friday and Portal email on Saturday; the portal emails doesn’t say which office they are sent from.

The size should be correct, the photo shouldn’t have any shadows, should have proper lighting. Can be taken by your cell phone or a professional photographer.
I recommend getting it from a photographer, you don’t want delays because of few bucks at this stage.

Agree to this. But do check the professional photographer's digital copy Vs the specs. They make tons of mistakes too. If anyone needs quick fixes to size/crop, let me know. I can do it for you. There is no need to write the studio name (FYI)

Hey pawelter! How much time did they give you to get back with all these documents ? and did you just upload them to your account ?

Usually for documents like this they’ll give you 30 days.. If it’s something “unique” or rare, they will send you request Friday evening and give you 7 days. This is happened to me. For my first ADR (employment letter and other bs) they gave me 30 days. I did everything in like 2-3 days and done. Then I got second ADR for document that was issued to me 10 years ago and I haven’t seen it since then, I haven’t used it, nobody ever asked me for it. They gave me 7 days (basically 5 because request came Friday evening) to find this document (remotely because it’s obviously in my home country on other side of the world), do certified translation and get back to them.. So expect and be ready for anything really.
